[quote=Anonymous]That was quite lazy of me. So, you 7th and 8th grade dads have a decision to make on the NLF 2 day event starting 1pm on a Saturday and done Monday before noon. $600 tuition + & $130 a night for accommodations at the IMG site.

No harm in asking what I think, and I think that this is a waste of money and is super sleazy. Sure 20+ D1 programs will send assistant coaches down to work in this camp for a little dough and a lot of good PR.

There'd be plenty of harm in asking Cabell, McLernan, Buller, etc what they think of you question doing this for a 7th grade or 8th grade kid. You see, your son got invited meaning he's one of the 120 best players out of six club programs...no, sorry I mean the whole country! And, you miss this you also miss a shot at the even more exclusive three day NLF showcase in Massachusetts next summer! And, there's more...this is a chance to pre-audition in front of 20+ D1 coaches from top programs who will be attending.

And...this isn't going to be an easy thing for you to take, but if you sit this out you are also out of the feeder system which gets you preference to be invited back next year as an 8th grader and also for the really, really important one for 9th graders. Did you notice how many 2018s are committed and how many recruiting classes are already full??? If you don't act now, you are really, really going to damage your son's opportunity to live his dreams and play D1 lacrosse. You'll never recover or forgive yourself and your son will always resent you for it. Will that make you happy? No! And remember, the registration is only open until midnight tomorrow, no exceptions. After that we have no choice but to open registration to the wait list. And the wait list has 894,385 2021s on it!

Look, $600 with another $1,000 in travel and hotels (assuming your 7th grader isn't going alone with Uber app on his phone and some cash) is a lot of money. It would buy a lot of EXCELLENT instruction with Scott Pugh or Steven Brooks which will contribute to making your son a better player the right way. I am not a schill for Pugh or Brooks but believe in instruction.

I liked Ryan McClernan a lot better back when he was just a junk bond salesman before the credit crash who ran a club on the side. Now he is the guy leading this sleaze. [/quote]
